It was just after 10 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry night, it had not ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the recent football results, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Healey and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could find her quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive away contented and not so anxious. A misfuel correction in Northumberland done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Northumberland we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Northumberland for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Healey (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your car. They are also able to fix any of the normal issues that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

A person called us from Healey to state that he mistakenly piped petrol in to his diesel Jaguar. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car!"

The customer was delighted and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to have the job properly done.
